From colour-coded labels to high-legibility inserts, this is intuitive visual design at its best: fast, at-a-glance picking for accurate, off-the-shelf access to the right pack for the right procedure.

No more guessing. Just results. Colour coding saves time and improves efficiency.

Our Colour-Coded Packaging System transforms the way surgical packs are stocked and pulled, improving OR efficiencies and shaving minutes off valuable prep time.

Check out our easy-to-scan insert design:


1. Choice of colour and bold labeling make it simple to identify pack-type.
2. Alphabetical contents list verifies what’s inside before opening pack.
3. Add your hospital logo to customize design.
4. Expiration date is clearly indicated to ensure patient safety.
5. Latex content is noted in red to help prevent accidental exposure.
6. Component Utilization tool documents unused items that may be eliminated from the pack and/or any additional items that should be included.
